'n Omgewingsbestuursprogram vir 'n goudmyn

Abstract:

The purpose of this research was to develop an environmental management programme that will provide guidelines for managing air pollution, water pollution and surface pollution within the financial restraints of the company involved in the study. The method of research was a theoretical study and a comparative investigation. The story was formulated from South African and international literature. It was measured against the prevailing circumstances at St Helena Gold Mines Limited, whereafter recommendations for the development of an environmental management programme for that company were proposed. Numerous forms of pollution are encountered at this mine, but there is no formal environmental management programme to correct them. Currently only minimum legal requirements are met.
